Abstract

Objective To discuss the clinical efficacy of phacoemulsification applied to the treatment of angle-closure glaucoma and cataract. Methods A retrospective analysis of the data of 52 cases for 56 treated in our hospital,all patients were conducted by cataract phacoemulsification removement or that combined with goniosynechialysis treatment.And observe the projects such as the intraocular pressure,visual acuity,angle's shape before the surgery and afterwards.Results All patients had no complication or sequelae.Preoperative and postoperative,by comparison of the indicators,it showed that the patients'visual acuity,intraocular pressure,and eye-angle opening degree has been significantly improved,the difference has a statistically significance(P0.001).Conclusion It can be affirmed of the phacoemulsification cataract combined with angle separation in treating angle closure glaucoma and cataract.During the surgery,attention,only to cataract surgery when the angle-closure is under 180°.The incision should be tightly sealed in order to avoid postoperative complications.
